I was reluctant to read another foraging guide, but a friend recommended this book and now I want to recommend it to everyone. David Craft blends teaching about urban plants, recipes, and anecdotes so you end up learning all about foraging without even trying. Its funny too, and the pictures are super helpful.

This urban foraging guide is a great introduction to the wild edible world that surrounds us (and we never knew about it)! This is a great gift for anyone interested in food, and is a great self-starting guide to a more sustainable lifestyle. I highly recommend this at-times-humorous book, especially for anyone living in the Boston area.

I have canned more than 300 pints of apricots, plums, mulberries, cherries and crabapples from urban trees this year and by far the most delicious preserves I have made were from crabapples using David Craft's recipe for crabapple butter and jelly! This book is an excellent resource for the urban forager and harvester.

I like this book
Great book, with lots of information, but not very long and could stand to have more pictures for identification. But it was useful!
